I am intimidated by the shear size of this motor home, but Steve says he feels ready to drive it {keeping fingers crossed that we stay safe}. I'll probably have to stay in the WAY back so I don't have to gasp and suck all the air out of the vehicle at every intersection. We wanted to rent a smaller class C size, but this class A size was all that was available after checking 5 different camper rental businesses. Bigger is better, right? RIGHT? Until we have to fill it with fuel...
Anyway, our travel schedule includes picking up the rig on Friday morning and driving it to Medora, ND. We are meeting my parents as well as my brother, Russ' family at Medora and camping together at the Red Trail campground. We will be going to the Musical and feasting on Pitchfork Fondue {I feel my inner redneck jumping for joy already}.
Saturday morning we begin our 500 mile trek out to Yellowstone National Park along with my folks in their rig. We have 5 days to explore and experience all we can while staying at Yellowstone Grizzly RV. We have even booked reservations for white water rafting at the Flying Pig Adventure company on Monday. It will be a first time experience for my parents as well as my family and a bucket-list item for me. Hope to see Old Faithful, the Mammoth Hot Springs, Upper & Lower waterfalls and anything else we can do and experience at Yellowstone. Leave a comment if you have any other suggestions for activities or destinations as we should have WI-FI at the campground to keep in touch. Prayers welcome for overall safety and sanity of our driver!

Good luck to Steve....driving that beast through the park should be a once in a lifetime experience!! hahaha Have a wonderful time. I can't wait to hear about the pitchfork fondue.
Have a wonderful time! Can't wait to hear all about it! I love white water rafting, just tell the girls NOT TO PANIC if they fall in! Prayers for your safety will be offered!
Enjoy your vacation!
We love going to Yellowstone Park!! My dad has a cabin in Island Park and so we do a lot of rafting/hiking and camping there too. Their is actually a place called Quake Park (not sure the place is right) that we went last year and it was an amazing place. Their was an earthquake 50 yrs ago that took place that killed a lot of campers and they have a memorial their with the history of the place. They have a movie there, and a visitor center and you can drive by and see some cabins that were moved by the water. It was a very sombering place. The places you are going are awesome too! Your girls will love it there! Just don't leave any food outside for the bears!!! Have fun!
